That is shit, mate. Stolen to order, I'd say. Distinctive trailer dumped is a clue.
Still, sometimes there is a happy ending...fingers crossed this will have one too.
The instructions are simple...

Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

Sad to hear mate. My bike was stolen and recovered by the police last week by pure chance. Not alterd, still had the plate on it.
Mine was gone for 2 months and id pretty much come to teh conclusion that i fuc*ed up and no one can be trusted. If its not in my actual house from now on im not satisfied its secure.
Hope you recover it mate... i can only dream of having a bike like that
Let the good times roll...
Will keep eyes peeled for ya.

Super bad luck Mate - good Karma coming your way! I'd be keen to PAY the cops to fingerprint the trailer, cos it would be worth the possible cross match and being able to collar the low life preeks one day in the future.

Agh, bugger.
I hate thieving f**kers. Eyes are looking in the Cow town for ya mate.

I know we give the coppers a hard time when we get nicked for doing 114 or whatever - but I have to absolutley take my hat off this time:
2.30 am last night the phone rang - "sir we have found your Ducati" I was half asleep...initially I thought it was a prank call....but no, the boys in blue found the Duke through a bit of luck, and, possibly, a lead into a crime ring stealing bikes to order. WHOOPEE! Go the Police! Over 2 years later and they found it parked outside a Mt Wellington motel.
It had bogus plates but apparently is in good condition. After 2 years I wonder what the insurers will want for it.
Anyway, 2 x constables from Glenn Innes Police Station: THANK YOU. And if this leads to nailing down a crime ring of low-lifes stealing our bikes, I'll be doing a ring around this site to get those two gents a holiday to the gold coast. As it stands I'll be visiting them with some goodies to say thanks.
PS I got a name out of them too....who's for some back street justice?
Unexpected Spanish inquisition
Wow! That is seriously good news, good to see the cops close a case and better still maybe shut down some professional bike thieves.
Will you get an option to get the bike back or will it just be sold by the insurers?
Makes you wonder reading that, how many of the flash bikes you see some people on are actually theirs.....

Yeah not sure of the process there. It belongs to my insurance company so I'll get in touch and see what the story is. 748s are great if they are maintained properly but if its been thrashed for the last two years and not had a belt change or anything it could be a hand grenade ready to go off by now...

You must be stoked. Make them a derisory offer of about 4 grand. I mean, it's "stolen recovered" with no history.

Back street justice my ass lets beat them to death with wet bus tickets in Aoetea Square at midday!!!!
Bike thieves...scum of the fuckin earth
Great to hear our cops doing some good
I for one would contribute to ya holiday fund mate, they do cop too much flak for the awful job they have to do
Just ride.
Unexpected Spanish inquisition
yeah...the hand grenade thing was what was going through my mind!
I suppose they could be caring bike thieves......
Be good to name and shame the thieving scum, but I guess that's probably not allowed in this overly politically correct world we live in where the crims have more rights than their victims!

I thought about naming the guy but then though what if he's innocent and bought from someone else...from what the police said it doesn't sound as though he is innocent but I also wouldn't want to stuff up their investigation but blurting something out dumb on here - especially if their investigations lead to bringing down a crime ring of bike stealing *#&#&&&@&@ers.
I'll post up here though if they do get more than just my bike.
Was thinking about the "no history" thing...a bike like a 748 if it has been neglected could cost as much as the thing is worth to get it sorted....guess we'll see.
